Positioned in one of Battery Point's most admired village streets, this meticulously renovated 1920s residence now stands as a benchmark for refined contemporary living. Behind its charming original facade, 23 Colville Street has been completely transformed—every surface, service and space carefully considered—to create a home of uncompromising quality just moments from Salamanca and the waterfront.
Blending timeless character with contemporary architectural refinement, the residence unfolds across a beautifully considered floorplan comprising three generous bedrooms, a dedicated home office and two luxurious bathrooms, all finished to an impeccable standard. High ceilings, wide hallways and restored Tasmanian Oak floorboards establish an elegant foundation, while double glazing, thoughtfully placed skylights and a complete rewire, replumb and new roof ensure modern comfort and durability for decades ahead.
A stunning rear extension now forms the heart of the home, delivering a true designer kitchen and living pavilion—an uplifting, light-filled environment framed by oversized glass doors and anchored by a sculptural island bench. As part of the owners' meticulous reconfiguration of the floorplan, internal walls were thoughtfully moved to create the highly desirable open flow the home enjoys today, allowing sightlines to stretch all the way through to the garden and out towards the water. Premium joinery, stone surfaces and an integrated appliance suite elevate everyday cooking and entertaining, while central ducted heating and cooling ensures year-round comfort in this beautifully curated contemporary space.
Sliding doors open onto a professionally landscaped garden oasis—lush, private and meticulously curated with mature trees, stone retaining walls and multiple outdoor sitting areas. This tranquil setting feels worlds away yet places you on the doorstep of Battery Point's cafés, parks and waterfront paths.
The indulgent bathrooms offer spa-like serenity, featuring bespoke tiling, dramatic recessed lighting and contemporary gun metal pc items. The generous primary bedroom suite enjoys peaceful leafy and water outlooks, abundant natural light and a seamless connection to the home's refined aesthetic, complete with direct access to a luxurious ensuite, thoughtfully designed wardrobing and the convenience of a private adjoining study.
A cleverly integrated loft space further elevates the home's liveability, offering abundant, easily accessible storage. Discreetly accessed via a hidden ladder and enhanced with built-in lighting, this thoughtful addition ensures a clutter-free lifestyle while maintaining the home's clean architectural lines and elegant interior flow.
With off-street parking, a cleverly zoned laundry alcove that maximises space and efficiency, a security system, and an uncompromising renovation with a extremely high level of detail rarely seen in Hobart, this is an incredibly rare offering in one of Hobart's most tightly held blue-chip enclaves. A home where character charm meets sophisticated modern design—and where every detail has been curated for luxurious, effortless living.
